— TO MY FRIENDS --
Spring is a wonderful opportunity to develop new friendships.
Let's cherish the new friendships we make, and at the same time
let's help as many people as we can to form a connection with Buddhism.
Through having frank, candid dialogue with others,
let's expand the solidarity for happiness far and wide.
